Most of the merchants did not like war, and in the midst of war, human life was like grass and trade routes were cut off, so they were naturally not liked by the merchants, and the Uighur merchants were the most important members of the merchants in the Western Regions.

But then again, for some businessmen, war means opportunities, and the benefits sought in the war are a hundred times and a thousand times that of ordinary times, which does not need to explain anything, and there have been countless wealthy businessmen who have proved this.

In other words, there are huge benefits in the midst of great risks......

A merchant who has not experienced a war-torn place cannot understand the great dangers in the midst of it......

However, the Uighur merchants were an exception, because they traveled in the Western Regions, and the Western Regions were in turmoil all the year round, and soldiers and bandits were full of bandits in the Western Regions, which brought a great threat to the caravans, and this situation never stopped.

The Uighur traders who walked the Western Regions faced all kinds of dangers at any time and at any time, and it was in this dangerous situation that the Uighur merchants grew their reputation for centuries......

Perhaps, they are not the most wealthy, maybe they are not the best at trading, perhaps, their sense of smell is not sharper than others, maybe the transactions they make are not the fairest......

But what is certain is that they were the most persevering of the merchants, and in order to make enough profits, the Uighur merchants were able to lead caravans through hundreds of miles of uninhabited deserts, trade with warring armies, and talk in the tents of the kings of the Western Regions, but also sleep under the bed with slaves.

As a member of this group, Ah Kin Sulu is undoubtedly one of the best.

Even though he had heard of the brutality of the Tibetans from many of his fellow Ganzhou, he was filled with fear. But he doesn't give up halfway. Not to mention. It was also about his property, and yes, at such times, the Uighur merchants would not care much about their lives.

In response to what the Han people said, seek ...... in danger of wealth

Therefore, after avoiding some Tibetan rangers and wandering outside Xiliang City for a long time, the group hid a piece of belongings they were carrying. Under the leadership of Ah Jian Sulu, he still came to the front of the Xiliang City Gate, and soon, there were Tubo people surrounding him, and before the Tubo people surrounded him, Ah Jian Sulu had already opened his throat and made his own request in stammering Chinese.

This move was undoubtedly very wise, and the Tubo people who surrounded them quickly stopped their furious roars and howls, and the unsheathed steel knives were also retracted.

But there was still an entourage who was too scared. Turning around and running, this rash move was quickly demonstrated. It was very wrong, a sharp arrow pierced his back with a sharp sound, and brought out a stream of blood, and the surrounding Tibetans did not blink their eyes, and there were a few excited monsters screaming something, and the twisted smiles on their faces made the well-informed Uighur merchants feel creepy.

Soon, a leader of the Tubo people came here, before more and more people came around, even kicked and beat the Tubo soldiers away, watching these fierce and vicious Tubo barbarians disperse one after another, Ah Jian Sulu and his party were relieved.

At this time, Ah Jian Sulu was also very fortunate that he learned the language of the Han people during his trip to the grassland outside the clouds, otherwise, his head would not be on his neck now, he was really not sure.

This was confirmed by the events that followed, and the Tibetan man came to him and looked at them a few times, with some doubt in his eyes, but at last he still stroked his chest as a courtesy, and asked in the same stammering and indistinct Chinese: "Guests from afar, do you want to enter this city to rest, or do you bring any message?" I would like to ask you, are you Han? ”

Some of the words didn't reach the point, and Ah Jian Sulu tried hard to listen, but he still couldn't hear it really, but he had roughly understood the meaning of the words.

After only a moment's thought, he folded his fists with the characteristic wit of a merchant, performed a Han courtesy, and replied with a smile: "We have indeed come here from a distant land, but we do not want to rest here, if possible, we would like to meet the son of the sun, His Highness the King of Guiyi, and I think he will be very happy when he hears the news of our lead." ”

Just this sentence is actually enough, they were invited into Xiliang City very smoothly, and after changing a few waves of people who led the way, they came to a mansion.

The chaos along the way made the Uighur merchants clear.

The Tibetan people are more like those bandits in the Western Regions, and they should be extra careful when trading with them, this is a group of devils who kill people without asking for a reason, and, by looking at their clothes, they are similar to those uncivilized tribes in the Western Regions, barbaric and primitive......

Perhaps, the Great Khan would have been able to defeat them with only a few thousand Uighur cavalry.

Of course, he didn't stand at the top of the city to look at it. A few miles east of Xiliang City, there was a camp that could not be seen at a glance, and an army of more than 100,000 people was stationed there.

This was not only because it was open enough, but also because the Tibetan army was too lazy and tired, and the leaders of the army were afraid that such a large army would be attacked by a surprise attack from Ganzhou in the west.

Without further ado, after walking around the city for a while, no matter how Ah Jian Sulu comforted himself, he calmed down before meeting the noble prince, but the bloodstains he saw from time to time on the road still made his scalp tense for a while......

He felt that this was the real place of war compared to the grassland outside the clouds, and several of his entourage, their faces became more and more pale, and they probably prayed to their respective gods in secret, not to let them leave their lives here.

Businessmen are not soldiers after all......

Soon, Ah Jian Sulu was taken to the main hall of the house, and by this time, his entourage had disappeared from where they had been taken.

Ah Jian Sulu was very nervous, and his whole body seemed to be shaking slightly, because when he arrived here, it would be his time to face his fate.

When he was in the Western Regions, there were many such situations, he also saw the kings of several small countries, and he also had dealings with a few Tubo, but the difference is that he doesn't know much about the Tubo people now, which is actually a taboo for merchant trading, which is similar to marching and fighting, and merchant trading also requires knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent in order to take advantage of the opponent.

At the end of the day, he just knows too little.

However, as one of the best Uighur merchants, his mind instantly became flexible when he entered this hall full of Han Chinese style but mixed with some details of the exotic customs of the northwest.

There are not many people in the spacious hall......

A few generals with helmets and armor, and a few other people of different shapes, etc., Ah Jian Sulu only glanced at it slightly, and with his eyes, he knew that most of these people were Han Chinese.

It seems that although His Royal Highness has such a noble title as the son of the sun among the Tibetan people, he trusts his fellow people even more.

The Uighur merchant tried to recall in his heart what he had heard in the grasslands outside the clouds, and judged the pros and cons, and then raised his head slightly to look in the middle.

After just a moment's look, he humbly bowed his head.

It was undoubtedly a strong man, but he should be not young, with a full beard, majestic eyes, rough and invisible majesty, and what made his heart tremble was that there seemed to be some doubt and anxiety in his eyes.

He couldn't help but think of a proverb among the Uighur merchants, "Be careful when approaching a grumpy nobleman, especially if he doesn't know your worth yet......

So, he took a few steps, immediately prostrate himself on the ground, and said loudly in the most humble posture and tone: "Your Royal Highness...... Ah Kin Sulu ...... From the far west, brought ...... Sincerest greetings from Asalan Khan......"

The intermittent Chinese language made everyone in the hall stunned.

The former leader of the horse bandits, now His Royal Highness the King of Guiyi, was in a bad mood, he just frowned slightly, he didn't hear those words very clearly, he waved his hand, and said angrily: "What's the matter, it's not a messenger in the army?" A bunch of idiots...... Lao Tzu ......"

The angry voice echoed in the hall, making Ah Jian Sulu's body tremble involuntarily, and his heart sank into darkness.

Fortunately, His Royal Highness is not the only one here.

"Greetings from Asalan Khan? Wait......"

A man who could be called fat stood up, his face always with a smile on his face, his body was loose, and he always had the demeanor of a gangster in the Chang'an Street Market.

But what he said was something that the thugs could look up to, "My lord, the messenger of Asalan Khan, I seem to have seen such a person in the steppe outside the clouds, and he is also called Ah Jian Sulu, hehe, I don't know how the Uighurs came up with their names, they are all called Ah Jian Sulu...... Well, that Ah Jian Sulu is fatter than our old Meng. ”

"Uighurs? The Uighur Khanate under Khitan rule? There was more than one person in the hall who understood, and someone immediately asked.

This fat man surnamed Meng is not an outsider, it is the fat man Meng who ate the overlord's meal in Chang'an City back then, an old fox in the internal government, but now he is running around and is not free.

When he came to the northwest with the army, he was assigned to the Tubo people, with the secret order of the general, and two or three kittens under his hands, but he was able to leave the ghostly heavenly demon control zhì, and there was no Yin Fuzi to follow him, but everywhere he was refreshed......
